The project involves delivering a 16-bed property with tailored support services, including health, wellbeing, move-on plans, and safeguarding measures. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with a contract value of £1,372,787.89. The submission deadline is set for October 6, 2023. This tender by the London Borough of Camden offers opportunities for businesses in the health and social work services sector to participate in delivering vital support to vulnerable populations. Companies specialising in homelessness services, healthcare, and social care are well-suited to compete for this contract. The procurement method is an open procedure, presenting a fair chance for interested parties to engage with the bid process and contribute to addressing important social issues. ## Notice The London Borough of Camden has been awarded funding by the Department of Levelling Up Housing and Communities and the Greater London Authority via the Single Homelessness Accommodation Programme to deliver a 16-bed property of supported accommodation in Camden. A joint bid was made with the housing association One Housing Group for three years of revenue funding and capital funding to redevelop an existing building on Gray's Inn Road. ### Lot Information Lot 1 'Gray's Inn Road' will provide a trauma and psychologically informed environment away from the streets where individuals are assessed and supported, linked to relevant services, and provided with a move-on offer which meets their needs. The service will work collaboratively with a range of partners including Connect Forward, the Camden Adult Pathway, In Roads (Substance Misuse Service) and Camden Routes off The Streets. The service will support men, women, and transgender individuals. It is an exciting service that will support Camden in its ambition to make rough sleeping rare, brief, and non-recurrent. With support from the local authority and key partners, Gray's Inn Road will integrate much of Camden's Homelessness System Transformation work into its delivery. The Homelessness System Transformation aims to deliver a more integrated response to homelessness in Camden that is strength based, trauma and gender informed in its approach across housing, health, wellbeing, and care. The project will provide safe off the street accommodation for those who are rough sleeping in the borough. Each person will be provided with a private room, on-site support and a designated support worker and catering. After the initial stay of around 3-6 months, we expect clients to move on to longer term accommodation. The service will deliver tailored support for service users and drive outcomes in the following areas: * Detailed assessment and onward referrals- ensuring that all service users are assessed, are allocated a key worker and that action plans are in place which address their immediate needs and risks * Team Around Me (TAM) approach to support - a person centred approach to keywork where all professionals working with a person come together to set plans. It is the role of the service with support from commissioners to bring together relevant agencies such as mental health teams, legal support, housing, drug and alcohol service. TAM models have a 'system blockage' focus. The team can log issues with the commissioner, and this will form part of the service monitoring, creating ethos of continuous improvement * Accessing treatment for substance addiction - Ensure that service users access treatment options for drug and alcohol addiction. * Health and wellbeing - supporting service users to register with a GP enabling them to address physical, sexual health and mental health issues. There will be in reach from CAPP and Find and Treat, so needs are met on site as much as possible * Financial resilience - Supporting service users to ac-cess ID, bank accounts and benefits, where appropriate. * Move-on - Ensuring that service users engage with viable move on plans ensuring a positive move from the project * Safeguarding including Modern slavery - Make MASH referrals and ensure quality safeguarding processes are followed. Ensure that service users who are victims of modern slavery are able to access the National Referral Mechanism or the Support For Migrant Victims Scheme * Safety planning - Ensure that victims of DV or other VAWG issues are made safer through collaborative working with the MARAC, The Metropolitan Police, Camden Safety Net and other appropriate agencies * Behavioural and trauma support through psychological interventions such as reflective practice sessions for staff, talking therapy for clients. * Development and use of a 'Client Passport' alongside other partner agencies - a key recommendation from the Homelessness System Transformation. Clients will be invited to reflect on their behaviours and identify triggers through their own 'passport' that can be shared with other support services * Provide additional off the street emergency accommodation during Severe Weather Emergency Protocols (SWEP) ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/023559-2023 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Aug 2023 | | Submission deadline | 6 Oct 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | £1,372,787 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF CAMDEN | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North London | | Postcode | N1C 4AG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | King's Cross | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | TLI31 Camden and City of London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 11 Aug 2023 at 11:34 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/023559-2023 ## Notice URLs - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert/Index?advertId=86915aa5-9937-ee11-8124-005056b64545 - https://www.camden.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
